The Veterans Leadership and Mentorship program was established to serve student veterans who are a vital part of the Sac State campus. The Sac State community is grateful to each student veteran for bravely serving our country and returning home to pursue a higher education experience.

The VLMP offers the following opportunities:

to adjust to civilian and academic life

to achieve academic success

to gain knowledge about university resources

to foster personal and professional networks

to learn leadership, event planning, and mentoring skills

Who should enroll and what is the program?

Currently enrolled Sacramento State veteran students are invited to enroll, especially those currently entering the university.

The program is a two-semester commitment to assist student veterans in developing leadership skills in preparation for the transition to the civilian workforce post-graduation.

The program consists of 3 units of credit that can be used to fulfill the upper division writing intensive course requirement that is required of all Sac State students.
